Extension fitting FERRO P50C 1/2" chrome 50 mm

FERRO P50C 1/2" chrome 50 mm extension fitting is a chrome-plated coupling designed to extend the threaded connection between sanitary fixtures, valves and supply lines by 50 mm. It provides a reliable metal-to-metal threaded joint with a standard 1/2" thread, intended for use in plumbing installations where a short, robust extension is needed. The chrome finish protects the fitting from corrosion and delivers a smooth surface compatible with visible installations in bathrooms and kitchens.

Advantages

The extension fitting offers precise thread compatibility with standard 1/2" plumbing connections and ensures consistent alignment between components. Chrome plating adds corrosion resistance and an easy-to-clean surface suitable for exposed installations. Its compact 50 mm length lets installers make small adjustments to connection depth without altering existing piping or fixtures. The metal construction provides mechanical strength and long-term dimensional stability under normal household water pressures.

Suitable for

• Extending connections between taps, mixers and supply lines
• Adjusting connection depth for wall-mounted fixtures
• Replacing short or damaged threaded extensions in bathrooms and kitchens
• Plumbing installations requiring a visible chrome finish

Key specifications

• Thread size: 1/2" (standard plumbing thread)
• Length: 50 mm extension
• Surface finish: chrome-plated
• Material: metal construction suitable for water installations
• Application: indoor sanitary plumbing for bathrooms and kitchens

How to use

Before installation, shut off the water supply and drain the line. Apply suitable thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male thread as required by local plumbing practice. Screw the extension fitting into the existing female or male threaded connection until hand-tight, then use a wrench to secure it with an additional quarter to half turn; avoid over-tightening to prevent thread damage. Verify alignment of the attached fixture or valve, then connect the mating part and test the connection for leaks by restoring water pressure and inspecting the joint.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible 1/2" threaded components and appropriate thread sealants. For visible installations, clean the chrome surface with non-abrasive cleaners to preserve finish. If working with older or corroded threads, inspect and, if necessary, re-thread or replace damaged components to ensure a secure seal.
